The 11 Days – 11 Books Contest : Play and Win!
9 years ago
Last year, we held a Children’s Day contest across our social media platforms and gave away books. This year, we celebrated Children’s Day with two of our authors (Subhadra Sen Gupta and Madhuri Purandare) who were in Bengaluru to receive the Bal Sahitya Puraskar. As a belated Children’s Day treat for all our friends, readers, fans and followers, we are hosting the 11 Days – 11 Books contest (coincidentally in the 11th month of the year :)).
You have 11 chances to win autographed copies of ‘Freedom Run’ (by Subhadra Sen Gupta) or ‘Daddy’s Mo (by Madhuri Purandare).

This contest has been closed now and the winner of the contest is Srividhya Venkat for her answer:
“Freedom is being able to follow your heart. Following your heart makes you happy. Therefore, freedom brings you happiness.
HOWEVER, freedom must have defining boundaries. I have freedom to play music loudly inside my house, but it must not be so loud as to disturb my neighbours. I must respect the freedom others enjoy and not encroach upon their boundaries. Without respect, nobody can enjoy freedom.”
